Xolley started in McLean's place, so aside from Holleran, only one regular was missing at the beginning of the game. He was McLean, who replaced his substitute before the finish. Bowser was knocked out before the final whistle and Sack gave way to Clark. In short, Pitt's entire flrat-string lineup was used in the Player Battered. The game was a grueling one for Pitt.

The big Nebraska linemen battered the Panther forwards to a fare-theewell and "Warner's backs, could make no progress.

Nebramka Has Long March. This was the beginning of Nebraska's most sustained march of the game. First downs were made on the Pitt 49 and 38-yard lines and the next three plays brought four yards.

With the ball on the 34-yard line, last down and six yards to go, after an advance of 51 yards, Hartley tossed a long forward pass to Leweilyn, which was grounded on the 10-yard line and went over the, goal. However, Pitt was offside on the play, and the ball was brought back and giVen to Nebraska for first down on the 29-yard line. Three plays, the last of them a forward pass, which Swanson held, although he fell after making the catch, netted 12 yards and another first down, on the 17-yard line. A line plunge by Hartley gained three yards and Peters was sent in to relieve Seidelson at right guard for Pitt. Two more plays gained three yards and it was last down and four yards to go with the ball on the 11- yard line.

Weller was hurt and Wenke replaced him at right tackle for Nebraska, and, at the same time, Colonna went into the game it fullback for Pitt, taking Hewitt's place.

Pitt had to kick and Nebraska booted back. The latter punt was high and Davies fumbled it but recovered on his own 41-yard line. Pitt was penalized on the play, the ball being taken back and given to Ne braska for scrimmage on its 44-yard line. A two-yard gain followed before the end of the quarter.

Hefe anaugh. Loiplre lioran. Head linesman faras. FOOTBALL tarn the tide. On ground gained, Nebraska should have won "oy a larger score than it did, but the game was pretty much of a kicking duel, play seldom getting inside the 20-yard lines.

Pitt made only two first downs in the game, and both of those came In the first quar 1 ter Nebraska made 12 first downs, one in the first quarter, three in the second and four each in the third and fourth periods. Penalties were frequent and a number of them came at critical moments for the two teams, Pitt gained only S3 yards in the game to 818 for Nebraska Pitt's gains by quarters were: 38, 16, IS and 16 yards, and Nebraska's 29. 124, 73 and 87. Pitt was seriously handicapped by bad passing. A number of times Da vies had to take wild snapbacks from Stein and boot the ball away Without getting a chance to him self.

On one occasion, early in the fourth quarter, with Pitt scrimmaging the ball on its 21-yard line, a pass got away from Davies and rolled to the one-yard line before the Panther cap husky Cornhuskers stopped at Forbes Field yesterday crowd of approximately 10,000 the season. A touchdown was to Davies without a signal, revamped from two years ago, worked for short gains twice. The first time It caught Nebraska napping, but the second time, it was quickly checked. Despite their siie and heft, the vis itors proved themselves very shifty and alert. Swanson, captain and left end, was the bright particular star.

In addition to catching the forward pass and running 40 yards for a touchdown, he was in every play and was a constant inspiration to his teammates. Twice in the first half. Davies tried to boot goals from place ment, the first time. In the openin.e quarter, from the 31-yard line and the second time, in the second quar ter, from the 42-yard line, and each time Swanson broke through and blocked the kick. Touchdown Beats Time.

The visitors' back field was a smooth-working aggregation and, with the power the line put into its charging, had little difficulty getting almost any advance it needed. The whole team seemed to cave in through the middle on line plunges, and on end and tackle runs the in terference easily swept away Pitt's resistance. Stein found a man worthy of his mettle in Peterson, the Nebraska center, -fend, from end to end, not a Nebraska man was out played. The Westerners certainly came through with a bang and there was no disgrace for Pitt in losing to them. The visitors made only three sub stitutions in the game, and only one of those was because the player taken out was hurt, Wenke replac ing Weller "at right tackle.

The other substituaion saw Dewitz, a reliable booter, go Into the game to kick the goal from touchdown. The half was over at this point, and Hartley, whom Dewitz had supplanted at full back in the lineup, went back to his position with the beginning of the second half. Pather' was with Nebraska when it registered its touchdown. Davies had punted to the. Nebraska 31-yard line.

On the next play. Hart ley plunged through the line for four yards. Only seconds remained of playing time In the half when Pres ton, the quarterback, called the sig nal for a long forward pass to Swanson down the left side of the field Davies, playing back on safety, l)us- tled over to the point the ball was headed for and almost broke down the pass, which was ahead of Swan son. The latter, much taller than Davies, reached for it, however, and barely made the catch on his finger tips. He juggle! the ball momentar ily, and then tucked in.

Wrenching himself out of Davies' grasp, he streaked for the goal line, with sev eral Pitt players in pursuit. He eas ily outdistanced them. Time was ui while he was on the run. wowever, he was entitled to finish the play and the goal-kick automatically became Nebraska's right. To make sure of getting the extra point in the close game.

Coach Dawson sent in his most reliable kicker, as before chronicled, and the score was 7-0. The teams left the field for- the 10-minute rest Immediately after the goal had been kicked. That Field Coal. Nebraska kicked its field goal mid way in the fourth quarter, which was a nightmare for Pitt. Early tne quar ter, Nebraska punted out of bounds on the Pitt nine-yard line.

Davies punted from behind his goal and the ball was touched down on the Pitt 39-yard line. On the final down, with four yards to go. Preston, the quar terback, took a chance on a drop-kick from outside the 40-yard line. It served the purpose of a punt, going to Davies on the eight-yard line. Tom returned to the 17-yard line, where he was forced out of bounds.

After Colonna, subbing for Hewitt, had made six yards in the line, Slein passed poorly and Davies had to chase the ball and fall on it on the one-yard line. Again he punted from behind his goal line, this time to out of bounds on the 37-yard line. Several plays, one of them a run of 21 yards on a double pass, carried the ball to the sevf n-yard line for first down for Nebraska, Stein 'tackling the runner and preventing a touchdown. An offside penalty mixed with three plays found Nebraska still on the seven-yard line for final down. However, the ball was directly in front of the goal posts and Preston drop-kicked it over prettily from the 13-yard line on the next play.

the wind. The kickoff was a good one, going to the five-yard line and being run back to the 18. First down was made on the 29 and then Nebraska was set back for holding and kicked to mid- field. Anderson ran back the punt to the Nebraska 41-yard Immediately Nebraska started to work on Pitt. While Davies was call ing signals, there was a constant chattering by tle Nebraska players, tending to take the Pitt players' minds cf their signals and at, the same time keep them from hearing them distinctly.

Davies protested against this confusion. Pitt's first play brought a bad pass from Stein, and Hewitt fumbled for a yard loss. The trick play came immediately and if it had worked out right at this stage the game might have resulted differently. The Pitt team lined up hastily, and, without a signal, Hewitt snapped the ball from the point where he had been downed to Davies. Tom was stopped after a gain of eight yards, and the value of the trick play was lost for the remainder of the game.

Hewitt made two yards through center on the next play, for the first of Pitt's two first downs in the game. Nebraska held and, on the final down, Davies tried to kick a placement goal from the Sl-yard line, only to have Swanson break through and block the ball and. then give Tom a chase to ward the Pitt goal for possession of the pigskin, which went out of bounds on the Pitt 40-yard line. On the final down -for Nebraska, fol lowing this, Presfon tried a drop-kick from the 46-yard line, but the ball went almost straight up in the air and was caught by Wlnterbum ofttt on the Pitt 37-yard line. Following a few exchanges of punts, Nebraska worked the ball to the 38-yard line and then, on the final down, shot a 30-yard forward pass, which was grounded near the goal line, Pitt taking the ball on downs.

Before the end of the qnarter, Pitt had worked the ball back to Nebraska's 48-yard line, making its second and last first down on this march. Engage in Punting Duel. Failing to make consistent gains, Pitt punted the ball away early in the second quarter, and regained possession when Stein intercepted a forward pass and returned five yards to the Nebraska 40-yard line. Shuler replaced Winterburn at quarterback for Pitt (at this point. Two, plays gained three yards and then a forward pass was batted down.

On the last down, Davies again tried for a placement goal, this time from the 42-vard line and a 23.1 Swanson broke through on him and blocked the kick. Shuler succeeded in recovering the ball for Pitt on his own 37-yard Pitt kicked the ball away and Nebraska worked down the field from its own 47-yard line to the Pitt. 23, where it lost it on downs, failing to make two yards on the last play. An exchange of punts was followed by another kick by Davies, Preston receiving the ball on the 30-yard line and returning one yard. Fullback Hartley went into the line for fouB yards and, on the next play, with time almost up.

Hartley shot his forward pass which Swanson Just caught by a great effort and converted into the only touchdown of the game after a 40-yard run. With Holleran in the lineup starting the second half. Pitt received the kickoff, Davies being forced out of bounds on the 36-yard line after a return of 26 yards. Davies punted to the 25-yard line and when Harman tackled Preston before the latter had 1 chance to catch the ball, Pitt was penalized 15 yards, putting the ball in play for Nebraska on its own 40-yard line.
